7/25/11 – KGTV-TV: Bichon FurKids Needs Foster Homes

Petey – Another leg-challenged survivor!

Meet An Amazing Survivor and Big Time Lover – Petey was born with an unformed back leg – but it never held him back or kept him from being a ‘normal’ bichon. He ran, played, loved and tumbled with his family for many years. Then, when his other back leg grew weak, his family took him to the shelter. Sweetie Petey was scared, very scared. The shelter people thought Petey deserved a second chance, so they called Bichon Furkids. BFK got Petey out of the shelter and outfitted him with a cart that takes the pressure off his back legs. With the help of his new wheels, Petey is learning to run and play again and has a new lease on life.
